Someone explain. It has a range of 300 miles and costs approx .02/mile to charge. That's $60 per 300 miles.
At 2 cents per mile, it'll take $6 (not $60) per 300 miles. Assuming fuel prices are at $3.00 per gallon with a fuel efficiency of 35 mpg, it would take 8.57 gallons and $25.71 to get 300 miles.

This is a strong argument for those in favor of solar panels on a home. Damn, if you do both solar panels and a car like this, with all of the tax incentives, it is a no-brainer.
Wow! I drive a couple hundred miles a day a few times a week. I'm def gonna look at this setup hard this week. I've already received a quote on my home solar system...
Question, if you accidentally run low on power, in theory, could you plug it in to any outlet and get enough juice to get back home or to a charging station?
